"Okay," said Erika, "Like, where is it?" She scanned the floor of the stall carefully. Within a few moments she found what she was looking for, to her left and partially hidden behind the toilet. She let out an exclamation of "Aha!"
"What Erika want?" Jen asked.
"This," said Erika, holding up her discovery. It was Jen's purse. Erika dug through it and found Jen's cell phone, right where she had put it after calling Erika. "Or more specifically, this. I've figured out how to get my hands on some new clothes. Like, really, Jen, I should be thanking you. It's your brilliant idea, after all. Now, let's see... I'm using your phone, so I should, like, probably make it seem like you're the one using it to avoid suspicion. I'll try sending a text message instead of a direct call. Oh, but who should I text?" Erika pondered for a moment, cycling through Jen's numbers until she found the one that belonged to Cassie Sheridan, one of Jenny and Erika's cheerleader friends. "Cassie! Like, that's perfect. Cassie's always got her phone on her, and she checks her messages constantly." With a smug grin on her lips, Erika tapped out a short text message to Cassie:
Need 2 talk 2 u. Meet in dwnstrs bathroom aft 2nd per.
"And now we wait," said Erika, tapping the send button. "And so you won't give me away..." Erika reached over and picked up Jenny once more, putting her into the purse along with her cell phone.
Several minutes passed, and Erika and Jenny heard the bell signifying the end of 2nd period. Sure enough, Cassie unsuspectingly walked into the bathroom. "Jen?"
Without even leaving the stall, Erika sprang her trap. "Cassie... Transform or Dare?"
